Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a safe, gentle, and scientifically supported therapy that works in harmony with traditional veterinary medicine. By stimulating specific points on the body—known as acupoints (specific spots along the body’s meridian pathways)—acupuncture improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and promotes the release of natural pain-relieving endorphins.

Many studies in both human and veterinary medicine have shown that acupuncture can effectively relieve pain, improve mobility, and support healing. Pets of all ages, from young athletes to seniors with chronic conditions, may benefit from this time-tested therapy.

How Acupuncture Works

Acupuncture is based on the concept of the Meridian system—a network of channels that carry energy, or “Qi,” throughout the body. When illness, injury, or age disrupts this flow, pain or dysfunction may occur. Stimulating acupoints restores balance, enhances the body’s healing response, and improves overall vitality.

How Acupuncture Can Help:

  • Reduces pain and stiffness from arthritis or injury
  • Supports post-operative healing and rehabilitation
  • Helps manage neurological conditions such as disc disease
  • Enhances comfort and mobility in aging or geriatric pets
  • Improves overall energy, relaxation, and quality of life

Specialized Care by Dr. Greenberger

Dr. Greenberger has advanced training in veterinary acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine. She integrates these skills with her medical expertise to create customized treatment plans for each pet. Sessions are calm and stress-free—many pets even relax or nap during treatment.

Acupuncture is especially valuable for senior pets, offering a safe and effective way to relieve discomfort, restore mobility, and improve day-to-day quality of life without the side effects of common medications.
